Just putting feelers out before I buy a new vitus dee or something like that for towpath commuting, using cdf at the moment but want a hack for daily commute, not looking to spend too much as that vitus is only 250 new and is perfect for what I want, just wondering if anyone has got something in the back of the shed they want rid of

I've got a Specialized Crux Elite 2012 Cyclocross bike that I've not advertised yet. Got to retape the bars, and replace the pads along with a general service. Looking for £125. If your interested I can give more info and pics.

It was my commuter until I got the kinesis tripster.

Regards

Karl

Cool. When do you need it for? I'll get it out of the garage and cleaned and fettled this week all being well. I'll also send some pics!

Happy to meet half way if it's easier.

Don't worry about the pics mate, gonna have to check what Saturdays I'm down for, but reckon I can get over the 9th to get it, if it's any different I'll let you know but will be over November for sure, just a bit stacked out at the moment :-bd
